Study of Hydrocarbon Miscible Solvent Slug Injection Process for Improved Recovery of Heavy Oil From Schrader Bluff Pool, Milne Point Unit, Alaska. [Quarterly] Report, January 1, 1993--March 31, 1993

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

The ultimate objective of this three-year research project is to evaluate the performance of the hydrocarbon miscible solvent slug process and to assess the feasibility of this process for improving recovery of heavy oil from Schrader Bluff reservoir. This will be accomplished through measurement of PVT and fluid properties of Schrader Bluff oil, determination of phase behavior of Schrader Bluff oil solvent mixtures, asphaltene precipitation tests, slim tube displacement tests, core flood experiments and reservoir simulation studies. The expected results from this project include: determination of optimum hydrocarbon solvent composition suitable for hydrocarbon miscible solvent slug displacement process, optimum slug … continued below

Description

The ultimate objective of this three-year research project is to evaluate the performance of the hydrocarbon miscible solvent slug process and to assess the feasibility of this process for improving recovery of heavy oil from Schrader Bluff reservoir. This will be accomplished through measurement of PVT and fluid properties of Schrader Bluff oil, determination of phase behavior of Schrader Bluff oil solvent mixtures, asphaltene precipitation tests, slim tube displacement tests, core flood experiments and reservoir simulation studies. The expected results from this project include: determination of optimum hydrocarbon solvent composition suitable for hydrocarbon miscible solvent slug displacement process, optimum slug sizes of solvent needed, solvent recovery factor, solvent requirements, extent and timing of solvent recycle, displacement and sweep efficiency to be achieved and oil recovery. Work performed during quarter includes preliminary reservoir fluid characterization and multiple contact test runs using equation-of-state (EOS) simulator. Reservoir fluid samples are being acquired from Conoco Inc., and the process is expected to continue through the next quarter. Also, the experimental apparatus for the displacement study was set up.
